Celebrity Sighting in Wal-Mart!

I can hardly believe it myself. And if the husband hadn't been with me, he wouldn't have believed me either. In my lil ol Wally World, I saw a celebrity. Not just any celebrity but a world famous person.

I was giddy when I spotted him. I grabbed the husband's arm and said look it's HIM! I stared at him as he wandered thru the electronics section. As we walked away, I asked the husband if I could take his picture. The husband said go for it. So I snuck into the children's clothing dept. and hid in the clothing racks in order to snap a few pictures. I tried to be as covert as possible.

Here he is!

Santa 1

I know! I couldn't believe Santa was shopping in my store! I asked the husband if he thought Santa would let me sit in his lap and tell him what I wanted for Christmas.

A little later I saw him in the produce section. By this time, I think he knew I had uncovered his identity and put a spell on my camera. None of the pictures turned out clear. Stinkin' magic! But I got a shot of the elf that was with him.


Elf

I looked for his sleigh in the parking lot but didn't see one. There was a van with some kind of aviation business on the side. I'm thinkin' that was his. This was the best trip to Wal-Mart ever!

Great trip to Walmart - I've never had a trip like that! Isn't it interesting attempting to take pics when you think you shouldn't -I always wonder "what are the rules?" -- Great sighting!

Be thankful they didn't ask you to leave Walmart like when I was at the HEB taking pictures for our photography class......

P-The husband told me I better put the camera up before security came and got me! I thought of you.

What fun!!! Looks like he hasn't started 'bulking up' for the trip around the world. Could be that was his disguise, that and the elf without the pointy shoes.

Oh and Lucky Dog is definitley a lucky dawg!
